It has gone too far and it's too late to do anything about it. 20 years ago this could have been stopped but we're way past the point of no return now. Blame rests squarely with the law and order drug warriors. If there was no drug war you would have the "good guys" wearing black ski masks, lobbing explosives into homes at 4:00 AM, charging in with a dozen of their roided out buddies, killing the house pets and holding women and children at the business end of a sub machine gun.

When (not if) these paramilitary goons come for the law and order types they will be getting everything they deserve. I tried to warn these people until I was blue in the face that these goon squads were just practicing on the potheads and their turn was coming. I'm through warning and I'm going to just get ready to hand out heaping helpings of "I told you so."

” Blame rests squarely with the law and order drug warriors.”

I’m not really sure of the true genesis of the drug war. Was it to bring about the militarization of law enforcement in this country or was it about getting re-elected or was it just to grab more funding for bureaucrats (Henry J. Anslinger anyone)? You start a crusade, wrap it in the flag and turn it into a semi-religion. Perfect.
